The Partnership
Franchising is regarded as the most successful way of distributing products and services in economic history.
When you own a Mary Ryan's franchise, you enter an exciting industry at a time where more then ever, customers are looking for the type of business which can offer a range of products and provide exceptional customer service. Some of our products are similar to our competitors, but we believe that it is the way we deliver our products that is the essential ingredient to our success.
When you become a Mary Ryan's franchisee you become part of the Mary Ryan family while still remaining independent to manage your own business. You will benefit from Mary Ryan's franchise support system, which provides you with:
- Buying power and access to a wide product range of book and non book products
- Quartley catalogues, Club Card membership program, point of sale material and promotional campaigns
- Business support and training
- Advice on store layout and design, marketing, purchasing and business operations
- Assistance in negotiating rental leases and support and guidance with property related issues
- Regular franchise meetings to exchange ideas that assists in developing business strategies that benefit the business
As a member of the Mary Ryan's family you will benefit from our highly experienced support staff and from our own company operated store experiences.
You will also receive ongoing business support and development from our Franchise Management Group, skilled in all aspects of book and cafe store operations. They will advise you on stock management, store layout, design, presentation, purchasing, marketing, staffing and all the day to day operations. This will help you to achieve a maximum return on investment. Mary Ryan's conducts regular meetings for franchisees to keep you up to date with latest industry trends and information, and the opportunity to look at the latest retail developments and issues.
